According to the schedule of events for E3 at the EA SPORTS Facebook page, we can expect to see more "Raw Gameplay" video from both Madden NFL 12 AND NCAA Football 12 at 2PM ET tomorrow. There will apparently also be an NHL 12 "Broken Glass Gameplay" video at 2PM ET. Then the "24 Minute Challenge" will continue at 4PM ET, though no game is specified.
:South_Carolina: I am very pleased with South Carolina's ratings this year.
Sweet I'm looking forward to thatQuote:

Not based on how the game determines prestige ratings:Quote:

:D Good point. Michigan may still well be a program that is looked at as "elite", but you can be a 5 star "elite" program imo. The football program at the moment isn't elite, and the recruiting classes that got them there sure do say something. Also the academic issues that have gone on there and the "practice" issues within the past few seasons all play into that as well. To me, UM is not the program it was a decade ago, or even 5 years ago. It can and will be again, but right now I'd say the missing star is deserved.Quote:

For a while the question for Michigan was (and still is to a degree, even though Hoke is there now): "Who wants to take this job when the program is where it's at? Sure it's a great job, but who will leave their post at what is probably a good situation for this?". For Notre Dame it's been a completely opposite mindset: "Who's gonna get there first with the most to offer? Everyone wants this job because the program is still untainted and a class act".
Hellisan from Tradition Sports said the PS3 doesn't look as good either but what else is new? I don't really care though as the graphics aren't the problem and look pretty good to me.Quote:

Good stuff from Helisan. I'm glad zones seem to work better, that's going to make a big difference on defense. His notes at the end of the article are great as well. I'm so glad that people who just roll out play after play may have trouble this year. It just blows that the computer offense is inept.Quote:

Better to have fallen from grace than to have never been there at all.Quote:

C+ for our D might be a tad generous, but overall that sounds about right.
B+ for Nebraska's D is ridiculous to me!

I asked if we could play night games in online games. That would make me so so so so so happy.
Just for I OU, I've sent in two questions so far, asking what difficulty has the game been played on that we are seeing in these videos coming out of E3. And is there any difference in how and where defenders drop back in a zone defense depending on if you are playing on Varsity, AA, or Heisman difficulties.
